There is an AC_TRY_RUN configure check to see whether file writes are seen by mmap. This test is only used in libreg, and I'd like to remove the runtime check and just assume that writes are not seen.
I'd like to push this to the autoconf-rewrite branch, for eventual inclusion in mozilla-central.

Might we want to go through an interim state where the test failure causes configure to fail?
I don't particularly. I'd like to make libreg an import-only library and get rid of the last few datastores we keep with it anyway (pluginreg and xpinstall are the only two I know about).
